Bonus Chapter: Kakashi And Kurenai (Shortest Bonus Chapter IN the World)
A tear made a pond of water rippled. The moon was out. There was a beautiful woman with long black hair and piercing red eyes. She sat on the tree that hung over the pond.
Then another tear fell from her eyes. The koi fish reached up and retreated as soon as the tear made its dive.
Why? Why? Why me.. Why can I never just settle down…Why can't I be good enough for them?
Kurenai eyes closed. Everything happened so fast. Asuma broke up with her.
Flashback
"Kurenai, you're a beautiful and kind lady and all, but…" Asuma started, he chewed nervously on his cigarette.
"It's okay, if you want to break up, Asuma." Kurenai said, looking away. Asuma smiled and left.
End Flashback
Kurenai continued to sob.
Kakashi was muttering curses under his breath. His mask was off, luckily no one was around to see. Gai had won the bet and this was the reward for him.
"Stupid Gai…." Kakashi continued to mutter. Then he heard a silent sob. He followed the sound. It was coming from a tree. Kakashi looked up, the leaves were parted a little but not enough for him to see who is was.
The sobbing continued.
Kakashi dared not to say a word. He began to climb the tree. To his surprise, Kurenai was sitting and crying on a tree. Kurenai turned around and was also surprised. She looked away immediately.
"Ano…why are you doing here?" Kurenai asked with her back facing him.
"I heard a beautiful lady crying." Kakashi responded, with a small grin on his face. He expected a punch across his face but it didn't come.
"Thanks. I'm going now." Kurenai said, feeling a little bit better. She climbed down the tree and began to walk until something or someone hugged her from behind.
"It's okay to be sad…" Kakashi whispered into her ear. She blushed but pull his arms away from her waist.
"A shonibi never reveals her/his feelings." Kurenai stated and began to walk away but the same thing happened again. Expect the hug was stronger.
"But we're still human." Kakashi continued. Kurenai stood motionless, she looked at the ground.
"Tell me, why are yo doing this?" Kurenai asked. It was Kakashi's turn to be shocked.
"Because…the woman I love is right here crying…" Kakashi replied. Kurenai smiled.
"Arigato, Kakashi…but I just broke up with Asuma…I don't feel like going out with anyone yet." Kurenai said.
"I understand." Kakashi said, resting his head onto her shoulder. Then he let go.
He look pretty hot without his mask...
Okay this isn't a chapter where they get together, but I think its sweet. x)
